Waguan Temple (Chinese: 瓦官寺; pinyin: Waguansi; lit. 'Tile Office Temple') was a Buddhist temple in Jiankang in AD 364. Its name is derived from it having been built on the site of an old potters' kiln on the southern bank of the Qinhuai River.[1] In the biography of Zhu Fatai, who greatly expanded the temple, the area was originally used to create urns for the dead whose remains were disposed of in the public burial ground.[2]
